This was very cool.
Eric Weiner travels to places that rank highest (Bhutan, the Netherlands) and lowest (Moldova, Qatar) and tries to figure out what makes them so. Swiss contentment, British stiff-upper lips, Thai laissez-faire sexual mores are all (in varied degrees) sampled, and he's a good writer. This was a good read.
I'm seeing it on a lot of best-of-the-year lists, but I'm not sure it's going to make mine, but it really was good.
